Psalms 122

1 A song of ascents. Of David. I was glad when they said to me, “Let us go to the house of the LORD.”

[David kah Tangtlaeng Laa] Kai taengah, “BOEIPA im la cet uh sih,” a ti uh vaengah ka kohoe.

2 Our feet are standing in your gates, O Jerusalem.

Jerusalem nang kah vongka ah kaimih kho loh pai uh tih om uh.

3 Jerusalem is built up as a city united together,

Jerusalem te khopuei la tun cingcui sak ham ni a thoong.

4 where the tribes go up, the tribes of the LORD, as a testimony for Israel, to give thanks to the name of the LORD.

BOEIPA kah koca koca tah olphong bangla BOEIPA ming te uem ham Israel taengla pahoi cet uh.

5 For there the thrones of judgment stand, the thrones of the house of David.

David im kah laitloeknah ngolkhoel ham ngolkhoel te pahoi a hol uh.

6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: “May those who love you prosper.

Jerusalem kah sadingnah hamla bih uh. Nang aka lungnah rhoek tah dingsuek saeh.

7 May there be peace within your walls, and prosperity inside your fortresses.”

Na rhalmahvong khuiah rhoepnah, na impuei khuiah ommongnah om saeh.

8 For the sake of my brothers and friends, I will say, “Peace be within you.”

Ka manuca neh ka hui rhoek ham khaw, “Na khuiah rhoepnah om laeh saeh,” ka ti eh.

9 For the sake of the house of the LORD our God, I will seek your prosperity.

Mamih Pathen BOEIPA im ham ni nang kah hnothen khaw ka toem eh.
